Dec 11 (Reuters) - Philippines shares rose on Tuesday as

investors hunted for bargains following four consecutive

sessions of decline, while a sell-off continued in most other

Southeast Asian stock markets on growing fears around global

growth.

Philippine shares added 1.4 percent, posting their

biggest intraday gain in one week, mostly supported by gains in

the industrials and real estate sectors.

"The Philippine market has been relatively weaker than other

regional markets. What we see today is a rebound after the

declines in the last three to four days," said Charles William

Ang, an associate analyst at COL Financial Group.

Investors will be looking out for Philippine central bank's

monetary policy meeting scheduled for Thursday, where the apex

bank is widely expected to keep interest rates steady, with

inflation seen easing further after it slowed to a four-month

low in November, a Reuters poll showed.

Meanwhile, S&P Global Ratings said it continued to see

downside risks to Asia-Pacific growth forecasts. The global

growth drivers that produced the regional upturn have started to

fade, S&P said and lowered forecasts for almost every country in

the Asia-Pacific.

MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan

fell 1.7 percent and was hovering near a

three-week trough.

The index skid more than 16 percent this year on worries

about corporate earnings and factory output, with the trade

battle between the United States and China, clouding the outlook

for world growth as well as uncertainty stemming from the United

Kingdom's exit from the European Union.

Thai shares slipped to lowest in more than 2 weeks,

hurt by industrials and energy stocks, with PTT Exploration and

Production PCL shedding 2.2 percent.

Malaysia's benchmark index posted its sixth straight

session of declines and was near its two-year low. Lenders

Malayan Banking Bhd and Public Bank Bhd

dipped to their lowest since mid-November.

Singapore shares dropped 0.4 percent with

index-heavyweight Jardine Strategic Holdings losing 2.8

percent, while lender DBS Group Holdings fell to more

a than two-week low.

Indonesian shares fell 0.5 percent as losses in the

consumer staples and materials sectors weighed in.
